    Default Hello From Minnesota

    Hello Trike Talk members. My names Jeff, from northern Minnesota. I began riding bikes on a Briggs and Stratton powered mini bike my grandfather bought for me in the summer between 5th and 6th grade. My first "Motorcycle" followed a year later. A 1971 Honda SL-100. I have never been without a motorcycle since. I am not one to discriminate on brands. I like them all. I do gravitate towards Harley's, though.

    My wife and I rode together on my Harley's and Honda's for years. At some point, due to age and strength, I was becoming worried I could no longer balance the bike safety when we stopped and starting out. This was with an Electra Glide. So, a couple years ago my wife was willing to get her license and drive her own bike. She worked very hard towards being a safe motorcyclist, never giving up. My hats off to her and how hard she worked.

    Although she never had a serious issue, she was not comfortable in many situations. I was also not comfortable with our arrangement and our safety.

    Then my BIL bought a 2015 Indian/Road Smith Trike conversion. We've attended Sturgis together as part of a group yearly, and seeing how comfortable he and my sister were on their trike, and the stress my wife and I were dealing with, we decided to buy my wife a trike. We did so this spring, a 2014 Harley Tri-Glide. We learned quickly we didn't need to continue to be separated if I drove the trike with her, instead of being on my own bike.

    It's been an absolute blessing. Both of us enjoy being together on one vehicle. Both of us feel safe on the trike. I still have my bike if I want to go out by myself, too. I haven't ridden it since we bought the trike, though. LOL

    So, here I am, happy to be starting a new chapter that allows my wife and I to enjoy our country with the wind in our hair.

    Welcome to TT and glad to see you have found a great way to ride together. My wife and i truly love riding our trike together and feel much safer on 3 wheels. By the way we are in SE ND.

    Thank you rhino 2 and GrandpaDave. GrandpaDave, I just love the Dakota's. I had my own semi truck as an owner operator for may years and had a dedicated route with Target corp from the Twin Cities, delivering to their store in Aberdeen SD 3 times a week from '98 to '02. Not sure where you are in SE ND, but I spent 3 nights a week in Summit SD at the "Coffee Cup" truck stop for nearly 4 years. Beautiful country! That couldn't have been too far south of you.

    Plain scary in the wintertime though, with the open plains, snow and wind that never stops. LOL.

    I've heard a joke that all the trees in the Dakotas would fall over if the wind ever stopped.

    Thanks again, both of you, for the welcome.

    Hi Jeff,

    Here's a BIG SD WELCOME to you and your wife. You don't have to feel bad at becoming a "triker because it eventually happens to the best of us. For the majority of us, it was/is an age think. In my case, it was that, plus a medical thing, for I had a stroke in 2008. But the important thing is that you both decided to keep your "faces in the wind" and believe in our motto: "FREE TO BE ME, RIDING ON THREE"!

    May I take this opportunity to personally invite you and your wife to consider attending our 2020 6th Annual Deadwood 3 Wheeler Rally, July 12th - 17th, in the historic town of Deadwood SD. Going to our rally's website http://www.d3wr.com will give you further details about the rally and where you can pre-register on line. Hope to see you there.

    Welcome to the Gang from Western Colorado.

    As a plus, all the hard work your wife put in to get her motorcycle license doesn't have to go to waste, I always wondered what I'd do if on a trip and something happened and I couldn't ride the trike home ... ... I once slipped on ice while on a trip driving my truck. Tore my back up and could hardly walk. I was, after a couple hours of taking pain meds and resting (went to an er), able to get into the truck, and drive home. No way that would have happened on the trike.

    In a tough time, even just you are really tired, your wife could drive and you could rest ... Win Win.
